DSP Investigating Home Invasion-Style Robbery in Cheswold

CHESWOLD, Del. - The Delaware State Police is searching for three men they say forced their way into a home early Wednesday morning, tied a woman up, and robbed her.

It happened just before 6 am Wednesday at a home on Seven Hickories Road in Cheswold, Del. According to police, the three men confronted a 36-year-old woman and demanded cash before tying her up and taking the money. The three then left the home and took off in the woman's white 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer, police said. That car has a Delaware registration of PC173332.

According to police, the woman, who was uninjured, was eventually able to free herself and ran to a nearby neighbor's house where she called 911.

The three men were all described as black men with black masks covering their faces. No further physical or clothing description was available.

The Talbot Boys statue in Easton has held it's ground - for now. Pat O'Brien says she can trace her roots to some of the names listed on the statue. She says, despite recent events, it should stay.
